- Nudge starts to get worried—after all, Max said she'd be back soon… So why hasn't she returned yet?
- Fang, on the other hand, encourages her to fly around on the cliff in order to take her mind off of things and reduce her anxiety. She flings herself off the cliff and spreads her wings, and it feels amazing.
- As they fly in circles and practice the moves they're learning from the hawks, Nudge starts to feel a bit better.
- Later, she watches the hawks take care of their babies. It makes her feel sad, though, because she never had a parent to take care of her like that.
- By nightfall, Max still hasn't returned, so they go into the cave and fall asleep together.
